SPRING/SUMMER LIPSTICK MUST HAVES

During Spring/Summer it's more common to wear a bright lipstick, rather than a dark lipstick. Below are a few of my favourite brighter lipsticks, which are incredible on the lips. All the mentioned lipsticks show up so well in pictures (when on your lips!). I know a few people feel embarrassed wearing really bright lipsticks, but who cares what others think. If you want to wear purple lipstick, you wear it girlfriend! If you want to wear blue lipstick, you do that! All lipstick enthusiasts should own these colours, because they can be worn year after year. Some of the lipstick shades are quite different and unique, however they are all gorgeous.

MAC CREAMSHEEN - SHANGHAI SPICE

My first ever lipstick from MAC, and it's one of my favourite nude lipsticks. This is a nude lipstick, with coral/peachy undertones. This lipstick will complement those with fairer/light-medium skin, since it could be too light for those with tanner skin.

MAC MATTE - FLAT OUT FABULOUS

Everyone has to have some sort of pink lip product, whether it be a lipgloss or lipstain. I remember hot pink lipsticks were the only shade I would buy. This is the perfect fuchsia/pink shade for Spring/Summer, however this particular lipstick is super super drying!

MAC MATTE - HEROIN

If I had to pick one lipstick from this post to wear for the rest of my life, it would definitely be this! I would have lighter eye make up, only because this lipstick is quite bright (definitely pops out). The only con to this lipstick is the formula, which is quite drying (most matte lipsticks are anyways *sighs*).

MAC SATIN - REBEL

I'm pretty sure everyone has heard of this colour! I was thinking of whether or not this should be included, but I realised it was a shade that could easily be worn every season. It's a blue based, vibrant, plummy-purple/berry shade. It's perfect for anyone who wants to look put together (without trying too hard), but is scared of wearing brighter lipstick. You could also go for a vampy look with this lipstick in winter.

MAC AMPLIFIED - MORANGE
Natural or a bit of burnt orange eyeshadow on the lids will complement the lipstick for anyone with fair skin. This lipstick is highly pigmented, so it will show up on tanner skin really well. It's the perfect orange shade that's not too neon (which can look quite tacky). Also, this colour matches my nails hahaha.

REVLON MATTE - 006 REALLY RED

Everyone needs a red lipstick in their collection. No matter what season it is, red lipstick cannot go wrong. A true glamorous/classic red.
